Working in Caterham

We cover every part of Caterham, including CR3, CR6 and RH9, and nearby Coulsdon (3.7 miles) and Purley (4 miles).

Caterham gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For loft rooms and sloping ceilings in Caterham homes, the design checks head height where you stand, not just the floor area. If you are in Caterham and weighing a bath against a walk-in shower, the layout options show both with their prices.

Most of Surrey has hard water. We plan easy-clean glass, rimless toilets and finishes that do not show limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A lighting and electrical plan showing switches, fittings, shaver socket and extractor fan
A clear view of which changes are cheap and which mean moving drainage or opening floors
A measured survey of the room, including ceiling heights, slopes, window and door positions and any boxing
Checks on the soil stack, waste routes, joist direction, water pressure, hot water system and existing electrics

Decisions to make first

Planning for later

Timber noggins in the walls for future grab rails, a wider door or a level shower floor cost far less to build in now than to add later.

Keep or change the layout

Keeping the WC and shower where they are saves on plumbing. The WC is the costly one to move, because it is tied to the soil stack.

Rules that apply in England

In England, a new connection to the soil stack or new drainage can be building regulations work under Part H, and new circuits or alterations to circuits in the bathroom are notifiable under Part P. Where a new bathroom is formed, Approved Document F asks for extract at 15 l/s intermittent or 8 l/s continuous.

Bathroom design in Caterham: questions

Do you charge for bathroom design in Caterham?

Not separately. The home survey, layout options and itemised written quote are free, and the detailed design is part of a supply-and-fit job. A complete designed, supplied and fitted bathroom in Caterham typically costs £7,300–£13,500 including VAT.

Is the home survey in Caterham really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover CR3 in Caterham?

Yes. We cover all of Caterham, including CR3, CR6 and RH9, and nearby Coulsdon, Purley and Redhill. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Caterham?

Do I need building regulations approval for a new bathroom layout?

Sometimes. Moving fittings within an existing bathroom is not always building regulations work, but a new connection to the soil stack, new drainage, new electrical circuits or structural changes can be. Forming a bathroom where there was not one before also brings in ventilation rules. We flag what applies when we draw the layout.
